Satirical hardcore/punk outfit The Meatmen have unveiled a number of plans for 2008. The band is the brain-child of Tesco Vee, has existed off and on
since 1979..
The band will be hitting SXSW before kicking off a tour in the Midwest and East Coast in March, April and May. A West Coast tour will hit in the
summer. The band has also re-issued three of the band's most popular albums, Rock ‘N’ Roll Juggernaut, We’re The Meatmen And You Still Suck! and Pope
On A Rope. Later this year, the band will reissue War of the Superbikes 2.
In May the band will be releasing The Devil’s In The Details Vol 1, a DVD chronicling the band’s live legacy and Tesco’s TV show will be out in May.
This will be followed by the the band’s first new recording in 12 years, The Meatmen Cover The Earth which will include Tesco's favorite songs from
the past 40 years.

Unfortunantly that date is now questionable. The agent that booked it just posted a bulletin yesterday that said "As of March 10th all Degenerate
Booking shows are calceled". He had some kind of big fight with his partner and they disbanded. Hes suposed to start over with a new name, but I dont
know if it will be in time for all the shows he already had booked to be 'rebooked'.
Im pissed because there was mention of Negative Approach on his site!

The show is getting a little bit of attention in STL. I have never even heard of the place called the Underground as a venue. Then again, I'm not
the "All Knowning Venue Overlord". I used to be but I go fired for masturbating in my office.
